Dear god no. Their fans are incompatible with our fans. Their fans are on a whole new level of craziness. Did you guys see what they did to Keza? Holy moly!

She deserved it.

No, she didn't. She wrote a review that was accurate and fell in line with other reviews posted at Metacritic and the people who ripped her only had a basic demo to go on and nothing else. The fans were completely unreasonable and they showed to me that they might even be more childish than Xbots and that's saying something because Xbots are pretty damn bad.

Yeah those people went overboard with bashing her, no doubt but just because of a few loud idiots doesn't mean every Nintendo fan is like that. There are certainly examples of crazy Sony fanboyism to but I think we all know not everybody is that unreasonable.

I saw that. We don't know if that guy used the analog stick (which would actually be pretty damn impressive) or if he used some accessories such as the stylus or thumb stylus (or even his fingernail) to execute those inputs.

It actually matters because the above methods make the inputs more accurate (referring to stylus/thumb stylus/nails) and what Keza was using was her fingers which is how we naturally play touchscreen games. The thing is, the Wii U has a resistive touchscreen which makes the aforementioned accessories more accurate than a finger. Using fingers to input the gestures are a lot more accurate on a capacitive touchscreen.

It doesn't really matter to me regardless. I think I decided I am not buying the game but I really don't see any control issues if you have several people that can do a play through like that on a daily basis.

You shouldn't be harsh on OP. he has a point, he was wrong when he said Nintendo had strong third party support in the past. But people aren't understanding that this isint the past. Nintendo can't possibly live on with first party titles only. We are in a different time, back then , Nintendo ruled the market, now they don't. I will be surprised if they don't release a new home console within the next 2 years. They absolutely have to if they want to compete. Wii u sales are at an all time low. Lower than any Nintendo home console launch in the past.

All time low?

It hasn't even been out for year. You guys are making long-term assumptions about the console and Nintendo without prior year data to compare it to. More games will come, better games will come and the console may recover.

Like I said before, it's not like last gen. We can't just wait a year and hope things will change. The way things are looking for the wiiu doesn't look good. No third party support besides from ubisoft. Everyone needs power. Devs are tired from the restrictions, times are moving fast now so if the wiiu doesn't get good third party support its done. I would say the same for vita, but Sony made indies a proirity and it has a ton of indie games on it. Why would I consider a wii u when I can get a ps4 with more power, storage, connectivity for $50 more? Nintendo needs to catch up. While OP's theory might not be entirely plausible, it sounds like a good plan.

It stepped into the next gen (Sort of) by itself.

Even before WiiU came out, one of many things I kept repeating is that the next gen won't truly begin until Sony and Microsoft throw their hats in the ring. Come November and the full transition into the next gen, everything will change.

At the end of the day, Nintendo still has their first party titles which are on nothing other than Nintendo hardware. It looks bad...now, but it isn't exactly looking good for anything currently available, game sales have been steadily declining and current gen product is slowing down. Everything and everyone is preparing for these next consoles.

Once they hit, things will change. WiiU still stands a chance at being successful. Competitive? I wouldn't bank on it, but it can still be successful. It hasn't even been a year and unfortunately, when dealing with long-term assets like game consoles, you have to be willing to wait it out. They aren't going to pump out a new console in two years. If anything, they'll come behind Sony and Microsoft's next consoles (XBox Two, PS5). Bank on it...
